9/11 + 5 years

[Jess]

I was getting ready for my morning class when I saw my suitemate's TV reporting that a plane had hit the WTC. My first reaction was also "what the fuck how do you hit a 100+ floor tower?" I left for class, and about 10-15 minutes into class someone delivered a note to my thesis professor and he announced the second plane and the pentagon. The rest of the morning I sat watching the TV in TDU with one of my friends. That day was surreal...

MSNBC is also re-broadcasting their Today Show broadcast from that day.
